Orlando Restoration Shop
For the most part, my A is running great, and from five feet looks great. There are a few things that I'd like to pull in someone who has more time and expertise. I do mechanical things -- so the engine is doing great, I can zip around town no problem.
I don't do body work/painting (well, I don't do it well). And I just stare at upholstery scratching my head. So, I have three projects that I really want done to the car: 1. The doors are out of alignment. Every door has one door bumper, because if you add the second, there is no way to close the door. Some top, some bottom. 2. There are some small rust bubbles, but even worse, someone did some really bad Bondo work a decade or two ago on the front window pillars. 3. The door upholstery is in varying states of falling off. The driver's door regularly sticks to the door pillar and completely separates from the door. A couple of the other doors, the nails have pulled away from the strips around the windows. You can push it all back in place, and non-A owners don't notice it at all... but drives me nuts. She's a driver -- not looking to win any awards. But I want to take care of her, and keep her at her best. Not looking for a full restoration, but a shop or two in the Greater Orlando area that can do some of the adjustments, Bondo correction, and upholstery repair. |
